Chapter 14 Diagon Alley's Trip (Part 1)

"hu~ finally came in!"

Luke has the urge to shout, and look back at James and Hermione. , Seeing the two people also looked at the scene in surprise.

"Welcome to Diagon Alley, let's go to the Gringotts wizard bank to exchange some money. Gringotts is run by Goblin." Luke said excitedly.

"I feel like I have walked through a time tunnel. This is the style of centuries ago." James sighed.

"Goblin? Is it Goblin in the book?" Hermione asked.

"Come on, the first episode of Fantasy Travel begins." Luke did not directly answer Hermione's question, but planned to take her to see it in person.

There are vendors who set up stalls on both sides of the street, there are wizards for bargaining, and children around the Quiddich window.

The three of them passed through the crowd and soon came to a white building.

Next to the two shiny bronze gates stood a Goblin in a scarlet red and gold uniform. Hermione, who came to Diagon Alley two years in advance, looked at Goblin very curiously.

"Let’s go in, Goblin is very smart, but sometimes not so friendly, follow me Hermione."

Walking through the inner hall, I saw the door of second silver, which said With warning words.

Enter, stranger, but take heed

Of what awaits the sin of greed ,

For those who take, but do not earn ,

Must pay most dearly in their turn ,

……

"Normally speaking, the security level here is very high. After all, there is only one bank in Britain. There are dragons guarding." Luke introduced.

Passing through the silver gate, is a tall marble hall.

Hundreds of Goblins sit on high stools behind a long row of counters, or use copper balances to weigh coins, or use eyepieces to inspect gems, or havetily register on a large ledger.

"Father, give me the pounds you prepared. I don't know if I can exchange them all."

"Is this enough? I have brought some more." James said .

Luke thought for a while, if you use a ratio of 1:5, you can almost change to 200gold Galleon, "it should be enough, father."

Walking to the counter, suddenly found that the counter is a little bit Gao. Although I have eaten Marrow Cleansing Pill, Luke, who is only 10 years old, can't reach the counter. He can only look up and say: "Hello Mr. Goblin, I want to exchange some gold Galleon. How much pounds does it cost to talk to 200Galleon? "

Goblin looked towards Luke on the counter, "Now the exchange rate is 980 pounds."

"Please redeem 200Galleon for me."

"OK Yes, wait a minute." Goblin took the pound.

"Mr. Goblin, is there a quota limit for converting British pounds into Galleon?" Luke curiously asked.

"There is no such rule, but generally we will not accept a large amount of muggle currency exchange."

"Goblins are very efficient, which reminds me of a famous saying." Luke Looking at the Goblins, I thought of a certain green-skinned race.

"What famous quote?" Hermione, who has the study tyrant innate talent, did not think of what the famous quote was.

"Time is money, my friend." Luke said in a weird tone, making Hermione giggled.

"You are right about the young wizard." This sentence was also approved by Goblin on the counter.

After counting the pounds, Goblin took a bag of gold Galleon and handed it to Luke, leading them to verify the number of Galleons.

"They are all gold coins." James was surprised to pick up a Galleon and looked at it in his hand. It was a huge profit for 980 pounds for so many gold coins.

Hermione looked at the contents of Galleon curiously.

After counting Galleon, everyone left Gringotts directly.

“Go shopping first, then purchase, Hermione, don’t you really want to learn about Wizard World? We can buy a few books about Wizard World later.”

“But I didn’t Bring money." Hermione said somewhat sorry.

"It’s okay. I can buy a few more copies. We can exchange them. Flourish & Blotts is right in front. I support owl express." Hermione still has a strong self-esteem, and it may not be necessary to help her buy it.

"Owl express? Can these owls be delivered by express?" Hermione pointed to the owl sold on the side of the road.

"Yes, wizards use owl to deliver letters and couriers. Remember my grandpa wrote to friends, he used owl." Luke continued, "I went to school in Hogwarts. I also have to use owl and home to write letters. Technology products are not available in Hogwarts."

"Here, right here, Flourish & Blotts, we will look for books that interest us, and we will meet in a while ." Luke opened the door and followed after Hermione and James entered.

There may be a lot of books I want to buy. Luke asks the manager for a pen and a piece of paper, and records all the books that need to be bought, all the teaching materials of Hogwarts, and some books of interest. , A total of 42 books (except for the books of Lockhart, Restricted Section and the wizard family, almost all books that appear in the original work are counted.)

Luke mainly wants to try it out, take a look at magic and Is there any possibility of integration or improvement of the spells obtained by your own system?

I found Hermione, "How are you reading, are there any books you are just interested in?"

"There are too many books here, I don’t know Which ones are good to choose?” Hermione looked at the book list recorded on Luke's paper in surprise, “How did you choose so many books, The Standard Book of Spells has only 7 books, and junior high level transfiguration, Advanced Potion-Making... "

"Most of them are actually Hogwarts textbooks, and I bought them early." Luke said indifferently.

"Why don't you buy it first, remember these, it will be enough for the two of us to look at it for a long time." Hermione felt that these books no longer need her to pick.

"Have you two chosen." James walked over.

"I wrote it all down, father, do you have anything to buy?"

"I didn't see anything I could use." James was a little frustrated.

"Father, don't be sad. I will buy you an ice cream later." Luke said with a smile.

"smelly brat, you think I am Anna."

He said with a smile and came to the manager, "Hello, please help me install these books. Will this provide a bag? ?" Luke asked.

"Buy in large quantities, we can provide delivery services or book baskets. Oh! Sir, you have all these books. They contain all Hogwarts textbooks and some very profound books." He almost I have never seen a young wizard who bought so many books at once.

"Isn't knowledge just for learning, how much does it cost?" Luke did not directly answer the manager's question, "father, take a few baskets to help me load the books."

"Really a young wizard who loves to learn. In the future, you will definitely become an excellent wizard. A total of 66Galleon 5 and 12Knut, give you a discount of 66Galleon."

Luke takes out 66Galleon from the bag Give it to the manager. "You can count it."

"Just right, welcome next time. We also support mail order. You only need to send the book list through owl." The manager likes this kind of big customer very much.

James is responsible for carrying the books, except for the bookstore.

"Father, you and Hermione are waiting for me here. I remembered that I didn't buy an important book." Luke said that he ran back to the bookstore.

After a while, Luke ran back with a book in his arms.

"Hermione gave you this book, you should like it."

"Hogwarts: A School History, thank you Luke." Hermione received the book Also gave Luke a hug.

"haha~you're welcome." Luke's face was slightly red, and he replied with a smirk. He also didn't expect Hermione to hug him.

"Father, come here." Luke called James Sis in an empty corner.

"What's the matter, you still know my existence." James said with a smile and jokingly.

As soon as James finished speaking, he found that the books in the basket had disappeared. His first reaction was that there was a thief. After thinking about it carefully, it was not, but he looked towards Luke in a puzzled way.

"The book is put away by me, so don't bother to carry it, go and eat ice cream."

"What about your books?" Hermione asked.

"I put it away. It's too inconvenient. Put this book in my father's basket first. Let's go eat ice cream." He put the book Hermione was holding into James's basket. Here, in James S’s stunned gaze, Hermione walked towards the Florin Fosco ice cream shop.

This child, I have to talk to Helen when I go back. James smiled and followed along.

"Father, I bought you a chocolate nut. The chocolate raspberry we both want is the two best-selling flavors."

"It’s really delicious. It's a pity that Anna didn't come, otherwise she would definitely like it." James said with a sip.

"The first time we are familiar with the route, we can bring mother with Anna next time." This time he was not sure whether he could come in, so he didn't let everyone come together.

Eating ice cream, Luke also introduced James and Hermione to many distinctive shops, such as Quality Quidditch Supplies, Magic What a Joke Shop, Ollivander Wand Shop and so on.
